I wonder if anyone involved had any idea what they were doing that now in 2023 it is impossible to read histories of the Reagan administration without thinking of the Konami code
Idle speculation: what if the testosterone stuff actually showed up in an earlier wave and the series of “emotional rushes” and other personality changes are actually related to the additional estrogen my body produced to balance out the system?
The amusement at how [tumblr] that would make this whole experience – the thing is I got on all the hormones – is probably a reason I should distrust the appeal of this account.

Heyo it’s back to school time and here’s a research tip from your friendly neighborhood academic librarian.When searching for any topic on the internet just type in the word ‘libguide’ after your topic and tada like magic there will be several beautifully curated lists of books, journals, articles, or other resources dealing with your subject. Librarians create these guides to help with folks’ informational needs, so please go find one and make a librarian happy today!!
this is the BEST advice, and there are so many options, both if you’re doing academic research, or just curious and looking for information!
Thank you for excellent additions and very much agre ewith you that cooking libguides are the best!! Have you seen all the ones from the Culinary Institute of America??
Oh! Building on your notes I figured I should mention to everyone that most academic institutions with a library are going to have a page with the research guides the librarians have made for their patrons. This will include basic topic guides on things like how to use the library or how to create citations. There will also be subject guides for areas of study like philosophy or biology. As well as specific course guides to assist classes that are being taught like FM 114: Introduction to the Fashion Industry or BME6938: Nanoparticle Nanomedicines.
If any of y’all have started university totally check out the ones your librarians have put up! There’s a ton up to help you along your research journey. And if you aren’t at university check them out too!! Some of the resources won’t be accessible but there’s loads of information you’ll still be able to use and get to.
Hello, fellow academic librarian specializing in instruction! Many libraries also include guides orientations on how to properly utilize non-subject specific databases. Watch those before diving into your first research project so you understand the tools and features available to you to make your life easier. Many universities subscribe to ProQuest or EBSCO and there are MANY tutorials that will teach you how to use them in less than 5 mins.
Believe me, you will save yourself A LOT of headache with both LibGuides and orientations. Good luck and happy hunting!
"Kontextmaschine shrivels away to nothing, blows through the streets of Portland like a tumbleweed, making the national news, rescued by McDonald's food scientists who invent a new form of super-fattening food" as the ending to the Kontextmaschine arc that no one saw coming.
(Yeah I don't have any useful recommendations.)
Yeah if it comes to it I’m mostly gonna make really rich sauces
Never mind, the actual funniest thing to do with InferKit is give it Puritan virtue names.
The astounding accuracy of its replication of the pattern, accompanied by its total inability to understand what a “virtue” is? *chefs kiss*
The entirety of the input was real Puritan first names and surnames. This is some of what InferKit thinks other Puritans might be called:
Disdain Middleton
Intoxication Sherman
Pity Smith
Hate-All Branham
Suffering Baldwin
Manliness Boyd
Annoyance Washburne
Pleasure Osborne
Empathy Butler
Deep Distress Warren
Pleasant Breeze Harvie
Loving You Dalton
Nourishment Jenkins
Apologies Farnsworth
Proper Condom Richmond
Monogamy Evans
Agitate Forber
Regret Hughes
Stagnation Hunter
Outward Kindness Wood
The Decline of the West Sutton
Revenge Davenport
Intellectualism Dalton
Democracy Dawson
Moral Stability Lewis
Non-Oppression Quid-Pro-Quo Slattery
Nepotism
most of my original input was made up of single word “virtue” names so I decided to add a few of the longer, weirder compound names (like Fight-the-good-fight-of-faith) to the mix
this made the results weirder.
Potency Taylor
Serve-with-your-body Brown
Petty-Misunderstanding Phillips
Destruction Sheridan
Sorcerous Quigley
Inevitability Leonard
Good as Hell Frederick
Obvious Whitley
Confusion Torrey
None of my business Munson
Manhood Nickerson
Homeostasis Mahoney
No Thanks Gillmore
Abortion Hamilton
Racism Thompson
Socially Violent Wilkins
Responsible Boyfriend Frederick
Hope-Spite Smith
Pay-No-Attention Brunson
Fear-of-misery Storace
Over-Indulgence Calvert
Give-Me-That-Tiger Lincoln
And the crown jewel
If-it-ain’t-broke-don’t-fix-it Schmitt
@probablybadrpgideas Probably Bad RPG Idea: replace tiefling virtue names with whatever these are
You don’t see flak jackets much anymore because anti-air is done with missiles now. Expect a revival if and when it turns out Gepard is practical against drones.
